At what point do you have to notch the back? I was gonna go for a 3/5 but I didn't want to have to notch it. Looks like it will hit the bump stop before the rail, but only 1/2" difference?
Just got my '69 and it needs all new springs and shocks... figure I'll set it up right from the beginning.

5" is safe for no notch, 6" is about 50/50- some people have no issues, others are not so lucky...

I have a 5 inch in rear and do bottom out sometimes if I have a few hundred pounds in the bed....

We were told by the PO they were 68 parts. We have seen a couple things on the truck that makes us think the marker lights were filled in ..... Both doors do not have holes to mount the rear view mirrors. The tailgate seems to be too smooth.

Lovely truck and oh so loving the split window. I own a 75 Baywindow, 75 Split window bus (13 window) although they dont regard them as German buses as they were bits and pieces of Brazil and German buses but assembled in South Africa and also a 66 beetle...
